Chapter 257: Chapter 256: Taking You to Flirt with Girls? (13) Chapter 257: Chapter 256: Taking You to Flirt with Girls? (13) She stared blankly at the face in front of her, seeing the other person’s lips moving but not knowing what they were saying.

It wasn’t until much later that her ears finally distinguished what the other person was saying.

“Miss, what’s wrong with you?”

Finally seeing the other person open her eyes, Su Shu was overwhelmed with joy as she lowered her head to make eye contact with Bai Qinghuan.

Perhaps when people are in their most desperate moments, they find even a speck of suddenly arrived hope bewildering and hard to grasp.

Bai Qinghuan had already given up the hope of living, only wishing for death as a release.

Wandering between the hellish impossibilities of living and dying, the sudden appearance of Su Shu seemed more like an angel from Heaven come to lead her, and the moment she opened her eyes, she had thought she was already dead.

So, the smile that bloomed after liberation was as beautiful as delicate flowers on the branches at the beginning of March, carrying the moisture of dew and the tremors of the morning.

That smile struck Su Shu’s heart fiercely.

In the midst of all the cruelty before her eyes, the girl’s smile was so beautiful it was heartbreaking.

“Angel?”

Su Shu didn’t hear clearly, so she lowered her head to try and distinguish what the sound spilling from the girl’s lips was.

When she heard it again, her nose suddenly tingled. Her eyes focused on the girl’s bruised legs, her ears catching her calling her an angel, that frail voice, filled with a sliver of joy and delicate hope, made Su Shu purse her lips tightly, furrowing her brow and sternly reining in the tears brimming in her eyes.

She was not an angel.

She turned back, gently lifting the girl’s hair from her cheeks and tucking it behind her ear, softly asking, “Shall I untie the rope for you? If it hurts, just hum.”

The girl blinked her eyelashes, taking that as a nod.

Su Shu looked at the rope tied behind her; she couldn’t untie it, needing to find scissors or a knife.

“Wait for me.”

After saying that, she stood up and ran toward the courtyard.

Lying on the cold ground, Bai Qinghuan squinted her eyes watching the angel disappear from sight as she turned around.

The surroundings once again became familiarly dark, damp, cold, dirty… and there also was that rat hole.

The brilliant light in her eyes, upon realizing something, dissipated in a flash, and the shadows of past despair and hopelessness reemerged, along with a pinch of disdain and pity for her inability to escape.

Heh, no wonder someone felt pity for her.

It was just a dream…

Only in dreams would someone treat her kindly.

Why hasn’t she died yet?

The angel seen in the dream was so beautiful.

How envious…

At the iron door, there was a loud clatter, startling Bai Qinghuan’s heart into a tight squeeze, her entire body caught in an uncontrollable reflex of panic and endless loathing.

Outside the door, a crude curse: “Damn it! Always thinking about having fun with women, hurry up and move out, the boss found a warehouse, don’t let those madmen beat us to it!”

“Brother, I haven’t had a chance to stretch in days, just a little while longer, let me have a go, just twice?” a sleazy voice pleaded.

“F*ck you! Not even one bite, wait until we finish the job and I’ll let you have your fill! Maybe we’ll even scavenge some fresh items to bring back. Move it!”

“Ah…”

Outside the iron door, the swearing finally quieted down.

Inside the room, Bai Qinghuan’s tense nerves finally relaxed.

She struggled, trying to break free from the bonds on her wrists, but she had no strength left, biting her teeth in an attempt that brought bone-deep pain, twisting her face in agony.
